Harold Blakey 1924-2014 - Northern Ceramic Society

Harold Blakey 1924-2014
Harold Blakey was a long-time member of The Northern Ceramic
Society. A serious and generous researcher he will be remembered not
only as a ceramic scholar but as someone whose positive outlook and
dry sense of humour made him many friends in the ceramic world.
Harold and his wife attended their first Northern Ceramic Summer
School in 1977 and it wasn’t long before they began to share their
interests with members of the Society. Published in the NCS Newsletter
No.30, 1978, ‘Lakin’s drab coloured earthenware and Drab Porcelain’
was full of new information presented with a degree of caution and
modesty that typified Harold’s work as he sought to establish sound
foundations for ceramic history during the next 30 years.
His research into Lakin culminated in a major paper published in The
NCS Journal, volume 5, 1984; it remains the standard work of reference
on the subject. Although many of his Lakin study pieces remained in his
collection throughout his life, it is obvious from this auction catalogue
that Harold’s interest expanded into many aspects of pottery. He wrote
more than 50 articles for the NCS Newsletter; some were short, amusing
and quirky like “Monkey Business” in Newsletter 69 which discussed
monkeys in ceramic decoration, other articles tackled more complex
issues like the life and work of Ralph Wedgwood. He combined his
research and writing with editing the Newsletter from 1988-95. When
his work wasparticularly extensive or detailed, he published papers in the
NCS Journal. As well as his early work on Thomas Lakin, he wrote about
the pottery trade of his native north-east England and introduced us
to the Bacchus family of London and Staffordshire. In addition Harold’s
painstaking examination ofthe Sun Fire Insurance Policiesrevealed a
wealth of material about many18th and early 19th century potters
which he collated for editions of the Newsletter and Journal. His legacy
of publications is a solid core of information about the ceramic industry
and it remains a vital resource for all of us interested in British pottery
and porcelain.
Harold’s passion for ceramics carried him to seminars, meetings, and
antique fairs for over 40 years. He attended his last fair only days before
his death in 2014. Although obviously frail, he was still enthusiastic
about pottery and eager to meet with fellow collectors. Harold left his
collection to The Northern Ceramic Society. A small number of pieces
have been donated to museums in his memory, the remainder is sold
with the purpose of raising funds to continue the educational mission
of The Northern Ceramic Society. Just as the current generation of
collectors and scholars is indebted to Harold Blakey for his generosity, so
the next generation will also have many reasons to remember him and
give him their thanks.
